Rules:

We use some CRC Rules as guidelines. THESE ARE ONLY GUIDELINES but please try to follow them:

1. Incidents: If you hit another driver and gain a position advantage it is good sportsmanship to allow that driver to retake his position. We do not expect you to stop racing. Use your head, give some courtosy.

2. Defensive driving: Blocking is all part of a great race. You are allowed to block other drivers from passing you as long as:

(1) No deliberate contact is made

(2) the other driver is NOT beside you. If the driver is already beside you DO NOT force that driver off of the track.

3. Exiting pits: When exiting pits make sure that it is clear before you enter onto the racing line. Use of the track map and the look left & right keys/buttons is recommended. If cars are approaching, do NOT leave the pit lane unless you are fighting for position - Please do NOT cross the pit exit line when leaving the pits unless there is an obstruction that makes it impossible not to do so.

4. Re-entering track: If you go off the track in a race DO NOT reset the car or drive back onto the track. You could possibly ruin another race in progress. Again, you should use your map and look controls to see if anyone is coming. If you do re-enter the track safely but are too slow and drivers are getting closer behind you... drive off the racing line, or if necessary, pull off to the side of the track to give room.

5. Car Damage / Fuel: If your car gets severely damaged in an incident and you want to try and make it back to the pit lane, then, drive off the racing line to let faster cars past. If you run out of fuel get off the racing line as soon as possible or pit right away. We recommend that you turn your hazard lights on to let other players know you are a caution on the track (press 9 on your keyboard. 0 to turn them off).

6. Contact: Rubbing and tapping are all parts or everyday racing, so, this is allowed as long as it doesn't harm anyone's race or gain you an advantage. Due to occasional lag, small taps may cause a major crash, so be careful!

7. Race Rules: If you are being lapped by leaders please let them pass you, when it is safe do to so ( i.e. not in the middle of a chicane ), and as quickly as possible. You should be told by an on screen message if you are being lapped, the words â€œBlue Flagâ€? will be displayed.

8. Pitting: Pitting can become dangerous if you do not pay attention. It is required that you drive in the 'pit lane' used to enter and exit the pits. Don't drive straight across every pit box, instead go to the furthest available pitbox. - This will allow more drivers to pit safely on the same lap(s)

9. Deliberate Corner Cutting: Deliberate Corner cutting is not liked. Please dont do it.

**NOTE: As this is not a CRC Event some of the above rules are flexible and are meant as guidelines only. We DO expect all participents to follow these guidelines as if the way you drove had consequences in real life.

If a driver who has entered the race is unable to attend on the day it is upto THAT DRIVER to find a replacement to drive for him and to let ATC Franky500 know about the change as soon as it is known. (e-mail: lamprellkid@blueyonder.co.uk). If the driver is unable to find a replacement then a reserve driver will be given the space.

All results and replays will be posted on the LFS Forum within 72 hours of the race. Please feel free to post your own race reports in a thread which will be provided on the day.

Nice one! I'm in!

Vain

Gentlefoot · 16th June 2006, 14:59

In principle I'm in. Just don't want to commit yet. The whole scheduled racing thing does my head in. I just like to race when I feel like it these days. Thats why I gave up ESL, Stock Cup etc.

Nice work tho Franky.

Theafro · 16th June 2006, 15:10

Been looking at the regulars' online pbs

so far only a couple of peeps are faster than me, although that's gonna change pretty soon i think.

it's good to see the mighty UFR get some action too!

zeugnimod · 16th June 2006, 15:22

Good choice!

Tukko · 16th June 2006, 15:34

And you already failed just 5 minutes after trying to do so.

All you're really trying to do by registering later is acting like you had a life beside LFS.

It's a month until the race. Enough time to practice for everybody and to keep that time free. That makes me even more sure that I'll be able to do that race.

garph · 16th June 2006, 17:11

mkinnov8 · 16th June 2006, 21:10

Confirming I will be racing in the UFR, and wont be moving aside for anyone.

th84 · 16th June 2006, 22:37

There's a couple spot's on the track where i can spin you out and easily say it was a accident!

I see ur studying it then :P

Theafro · 19th June 2006, 04:26

Just watched the LM24, makes us look like wimps.

sign-ups might be a little lacking maybee this time, due to the technical nature of the course, it's not noob freindly. it should be nicely populated with experienced drivers and a few dedicated novices. similar to KY_nat rev a few races ago.

I've got a practice server running, feel free to join, although it's untested

Weed · 19th June 2006, 15:56

Can't Wait for this one, i'm in

Dr Dink · 21st June 2006, 16:54

I will also be running the UFR!!! fancy a change

richy · 21st June 2006, 17:09

Signed up, looking forward to another race. Not sure which car i will be in yet, depends how testing goes.

garph · 25th June 2006, 12:17

Dunno why but I've only just realised how long the race will be, eek!

**franky500** · 25th June 2006, 18:57

EEEK your connection will last and we will trully see how bad you really are :P

Dr Dink · 26th June 2006, 07:24

Ok all I need now is someone to post a good UFR set for this track.

Theafro · 26th June 2006, 12:05

all i can do is a bunch of crap ones. IMHO the UFR is gonna be at a distinct disadvantage to the XFR, but i'm willing to be proved very wrong

Theafro · 26th June 2006, 16:47

I'm assuming you're not in the UFR fan club then.

3 weeks to go and already at 19 signups (including mysterious dadge)

dadge · 27th June 2006, 14:15
